The Allen Family

 I love when it gets quite and look over to find Sis passed out. She is ready to help Daddy on the hunt!   Well we had a dog for about 10 hours then Mama decided it was definitely a hound and my nerves could not take training it. Ryker has always said he wants to be a derby car driver just like Cody so Cody surprised him with one of his trophies. Ryker was so thrilled and displays it proudly in his room.

 The day my Mom and Grandma passed 8/24   My Dad when he was younger My Dad and Garrin Johnson  When my parents got married Grandpa and Grandma Claude & Josephine Roberts, My Daddy, My Mama, Grandma and Grandpa Wanda & Herb Goforth   My Mama looking like a porcelain doll  Grandma and Grandpa Wanda & Herb Goforth and Garrin Johnson My Mama and Daddy  My Mama when she was really young  My Mama graduating nursing school   Us girls  Dora, Me and Herbie  Dora and I   I think this may be my first birthday  

 Well Chris is the proud owner of kidney stones that had us in the ER twice in 24 hours. I have never been so scared, Chris was in the most pain I have ever seen him in. These damn things took him to his knees and it was so heartbreaking. After the second ER trip he got a CT scan showing one had passed and that both of his kidneys have stones in them. So now we have to take this tiny stone and the CT scans to the urologist to decide where to go from here. Can you believe this tiny thing would put a grown man with a HIGH tolerance to pain rolling around on the floor in severe pain? CRAZY! 

 We did a raffle at Tooele Valley Meat for Ryan to attend to the Cincinnati Reds game as his last wish since his cancer has been diagnosed terminal. We raised so much money. I was so proud and honored of our community for stepping up and helping him out. The night we took the money over to Ryan, he was getting a surprise of becoming an honorary fire fighter. It was such an amazing experience to witness.   Ryker drew and colored Ryan a picture for his "HULK"! I sure love this boy's smile and POSITIVE outlook on life even though he has been through pure hell. Coming out for his surprise  It was so emotional and we were all beaming with joy  I think everyone was crying. Not a dry eye in the yard.  Look at all these AMAZING people!  You are loved so much  After his ride in the fire truck   I truly love the Tomac's so much. They mean the world to me. My heart aches...

 We hate to see the summer come to an end.... Everyone loves Cody and Constance backyard  Cody threw Constance in then it was war for all the adults  Ryker thought it was hilarious watching all the adults be silly  Trouble!  Sis was just doing her own thing  Cody thought she needed a little watering  Big boys have to play too  These 3 girls are quite the divas  Love them all
